They have 3 large, new and fully equipped international standard fast boats offering a choice of multiple daily departures between Bali and the Gili Islands, as well as services from Bali to Nusa Lembongan, Bali to Penida and Ceningan. *Gili Meno - There is an extra 35,000 IDR (€3) p.p. charge levied by the locals to transfer between shore and the Eka Jaya mooring.
Advice for Bali arrivals: When arriving at Padang Bai from the Gili Islands, please ignore the many taxi drivers and hawkers present on the pier and proceed to your free drop service which will be waiting in the main square about 20m from the jetty. Only follow instructions by Eka Jaya staff in official uniform, holding signs which say "Eka Jaya Shuttle". You may need to be proactive in asking for clear directions from them. This can be an uncomfortable situation for some customers, but unfortunately Eka Jaya are unable to prohibit local drivers from coming on to the jetty in this manner.
Full safety equipment onboard, including life jackets and large life rafts, toilet, TV, spacious roof sundeck.
